12 audio tracks at DVinfo.net

Russell Banks · November 15th, 2007, 10:28 AM

Anyone know how to get 12 audio tracks into you Mac that will be in sync with your video?

I am looking at the Multibridge Pro but it is all Digital Audio. The feeds will be coming straight off a mixing board.

You've not suggested how much money you want to spend, and what Macs and additional audio cards you may already have.

You can't expect a proper answer without a proper question.

Perhaps you're better off hiring a proper multitrack recorder, then digitise the tracks in afterwards in stereo pairs. Buying an expensive multichannel audio card may be more than hiring kit in if it's a one off job.

Russell,

a multi-track recorder, as suggested by Duncan, or an audio interface such as the Echo AudioFire 12 would take care of the audio portion of the job. Maybe if you can explain the significance of "synching with video", or in general what problem you are trying to solve with this setup, we can get a better idea of what might be helpful for you.
